In this episode, I sit down with my friend Cosimo Serpolla to talk honestly about life in Italy—what works, what doesn’t, and what people don’t tell you before moving here. We dig into cultural expectations, job market frustrations, how the experience differs if you’re LGBTQ+ or an expat, and why cities like Brussels keep pulling people away. If you’ve ever dreamed of living in Italy, this one’s for you—just don’t expect a sugar-coated fantasy. We’re talking about the real deal.
